INTRODUCTION OF BILLS.
When the order OF business was reached at
| least twenty members popped up in their seats
and yelling at the top of their voices, Mr.
| Speaker held aloft handful of bills. Each
apparently wanted to have the name of placing
| the first bill before the House. Gid men aud
young men, lawyers, doctors and journalists
were gesticulating wildly at the Speaker and
did not desist until the presiding officer recog-
nized Brooks of Ventura ard he loaded down a
little page with a large roll of manuscript
which was taken to the Clerks desk. This
| rivalry for position on the file was maintained
| for upwards of an hour, during which me 81
bills were introduced, read by the title and re-
ferred to the proper comm ittee. This large
number of bills in one day is unprecedented in
the history of the Legislatures of this State aud
| and of the tour score introduced less than ten
can be claimed important, and more than
| that number will hardly be returned from the
committees, their passage recommended. 1t
was matter of no little merriment to the re-
porters, the introduction of the usual num-
Der of what are termed cinch bills notably
| those regulating the pawnbroker business.
They locked like old-time friends. They are
the same identical bills that bob up serenely at
the beginning OF every session.

the bills in the order of their introduction:
